    This is how we all felt after Harden’s game 6 last year.

    James Harden played horrible defense and scored 20 points. Chris Paul 12 Points??? Just saying, how do you expect to beat the warriors with these numbers.

    Millions in Asia have the last name Lin. Lmao. You can say the House of Lin is relatively big one.

    To hate iron for not becoming steel 恨铁不成钢
    February 1, 2018

    Feel resentful towards somebody for failing to meet expectations and impatient to see improvement

    [​IMG]


    Pinyin: hèn tiě bù chéng gāng

    Exp:

    - be anxious for somebody to improve

    - regret that one's offspring does not live up to one's expectations

    - be exasperated at somebody's failure to make good

    Examples:

    Their anxiety for improvement is well intended, but the child is still small, and should not beat him, just have to slowly educate him.

    他们恨铁不成钢是好心,可是孩子还小,不能打他,得慢慢教育才是。

    tāmen hèntiěbùchénggāng shì hǎoxīn, kěshì háizi hái xiǎo, bù néng dǎ tā, děi mànmàn jiàoyù cái shì.




    Learning is often a slow process, don't be anxious for her to improve at once.

    学习经常是一种缓慢的过程, 别恨铁不成钢。

    xuéxí jīngcháng shì yī zhǒng huǎnmàn de guòchéng, bié hèntiěbùchénggāng.





    The professor is impatient to see improvements, so his demands from us are very rigorous.

    教授恨铁不成钢,所以对我们要求得很严格。

    jiàoshòu hèntiěbùchénggāng, suǒyǐ duì wǒmen yāoqiú de hěn yángé.​
